Tamiya TA-02 Opel Calibra V6 RC Touring Car Electric 4WD 1/10 Scale Kit
Get some 1990s touring car action with this welcome return for the Opel Calibra V6 to the Tamiya R/C model line-up! The 1994 model's stylish, bulky 2-door body is recreated in polycarbonate with separately moulded side mirrors, wiper arms and rear wing, and two big sticker sheets to decorate it.
This is a R/C recreation of the Opel Calibra V6 that took part in the 1994 running of the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM) series. Entered by Joest Racing, the car was powered by a 2.5-litre V6 engine and piloted among others by former Formula One champion Keke Rosberg. The Limited-Edition kit is an exact re-release of the original as it appeared in the mid-1990s.
The TA-02 bathtub chassis provides shaft-driven 4WD, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, front and rear gear cases with built-in differential gears, and a rear ball differential.
Two big sticker sheets recreate the various sponsors and other markings; masking stickers are also included.
